a day in the life { of a dancer }
It was so awesome that Natalie had a chance to be a part of the Dynamite Express team at Dance Connection Too. I love watching her dance. That girl can move! Oh and Lucy too :)
The girls had their recital last week. That means its over. Finito.
I spent most of the previous day at dress rehearsal. I was so wiped afterwards! I think we got home at like 9:30 PM!! It was crazy insane!! But of course I took that opportunity to play with my camera ALOT! I love this one I got of these ballerina girls!
and of course I can't decide on which processing I prefer. I just really love them both for different reasons!
( notice how she's putting her all into this move... i love it! )
Ok I'm not gonna lie... I was not entirely sure how Lucy would do on stage. You know it can be a little iffy with the young ones. i mean thats hilarious and all, but oh the joy of seeing your 4 year old dancing her heart out on stage! I was giddy to see her up there doing all her moves! And with a smile on her face :)!! oh yes it was divine...
Natalie was a little harder to capture as she was ALWAYS in the back! ( see her clear at the back of the stage... nice form huh?!? )
Once again... nice form... way in the back. I just sayin is all...
These are the "firecrackers" of the team, performing their dance Bend and Snap.
We showered these girls with roses afterward. i am so proud of them. They did so so good.
and so it is now over. or is it...
We decided to let Natalie do dance camp again this summer... this is where it all started for us last year! What have I done?!?!?! I love her being a part of such a great team, I can see how she beams with pride every time she wears her Dynamite Express dance shirt to school, which is alot because lets face it she's a bit of a show-off!! Just ask her to do the splits for you, she will eat it up like candy :) !!
And so why not you ask? Do you really have to ask? it. is. so. expensive.
Try-outs are tomorrow. She will make the team, I am sure of it. Here's a little look at some of todays action...
note: She's' the one with the orange tu-tu on her dance shorts... makes her kinda easy to pick out :)
Oh yeah and I am totally loving the FLIP!
...excuse me while I head to B&N to bury my head in some magazines... chow!
